Sweden?

huh

You! What?

looking at what Gentlefish said

I am literally too drunk to find it. Quote please.

How the hell is the EU supposed to deal with all those US refugees

Turns out, Sweden's refugee policy would allow Mexican-Americans (and anyone whom Trump has threatened) to seek asylum!

If Nanaimo, British Columbia doesn't work out, I heard Oslo is nice.

My wife wouldn't accept it, and I'd presumably be acceptable to what Inwee as home (Edinburgh ftw!) so go away with you're supremely acceptable l er... Scandinavian acceptance.

Holy shit, just googled up election results. 
These 4 years are gonna be something alright. 

The question that must be smoldering in everyone's minds:  Will Murrica be great again?

[Owlbread]

I have to tell you not to accept that, because I'm super fucking drunk and need you, of all people, to accept Scottish independence as a possibility. Fucking Brexit and shit, Scotland voted to stay! 56 MPs! Independence is the way forward.

I do accept it, that doesn't mean I stopped working for it - I always will because I know it's the way forward, just like a left-wing government is for the United States. The problem is that Democrats failed to inspire or reach vast tracts of the American population screwed over by neoliberalism and globalisation and now they've swung rightwards and elected Trump, just like the same demographics in England and Wales swung to UKIP and Brexit. The worst thing Democrats can do right now is turn against Trump supporters in places like Michigan and Pennsylvania rather than trying to understand why they failed to reach a demographic that should have been theirs, or inspire enough of the demographics that did support them to actually get out and vote. I said months ago Hilary was not the answer, people needed real change.

I'm pissed beyond all human comprehension, but you guys are just being pathetic about this.

There are three components to the US government, and Trump only controls one, while the republicans do control one of the others, they have a vested interest in not doing shit that causes the entire nation to explode (they don't care about the people who fall through the cracks tho'.)  Trump cannot actually wreck the US or anyone else on his own, he NEEDS the House to back him or he can't do shit except write those lovely executive orders that can't actually change anything.

Stop whining.

nope.

I expect spectacular self destruction.

So, great the way a fireworks show is.

It's done? Thank fuck, now everyone can finally shut the fuck up about this goddamn election and talk about something else. Let Trump fade out of the public eye just like Obama did after he got elected in '08.

I mean sure it sucks ass that America still retains enough of a well of hatred to want to elect the guy purely for the sake of electing an outsider from the apparent viper's nest that Washington became in the last 10 years, but now everyone can actually go back to worrying about their own lives and not feeding into a gigantic reality tv-style media shitstorm 24/7/365. If the North American continent ends up being consumed in atomic hellfire, well, that's Dump's problem now.

Yeezus fuckity.

[Powder Miner]

Gonna be less condescending about this now since I'm now seeing exactly how upset people are and I am also realizing I was being a bit of a dick -- but I really think things will be okay. I can't say that things won't be negative, but I'm fairly confident that the level of turmoil some expect will not come to be, and though I do not know if violence against minorities will increase or if so how much, I am at least confident that we will not have a kristallnacht level kind of thing.

[wierd]

The power held by the GOP this election is unprecedented.

house, senate, presidency, and soon the supreme court.


Expect very big reversals on progressive centerpieces.

[Erkki]

I thought Hillary was supposed to win easily... If one believed media?

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

[Powder Miner]

Probably. Here's hoping the more Paul Ryan-ite Republicans keep ultimate hold of comgress

The great political shitstorm of our time has probably just begun.

[NullForceOmega]

No, Hillary barely stood a chance, she completely failed to approach her campaign in a way that would have neutralized Trump's impetus.  I said it before, I'll say it again:  Hate is a more effective motivator than altruism.
